First Cycle of TTC with Baby #1 - London, Ontario.

Just curious if there are any London (or surrounding areas) ladies who are also early in the ttc game? I am 30 and have just started this process - Jan is our first
month/cycle of ttc for our first baby.

There
is a lot to read and keep up on. I'm trying to stay level headed by
reminding myself that we have just started so there is no use in going
chart-crazy and taking temperatures just yet. I also keep reminding
myself of those pesky odds - 6 to 12 months of ttc for most couples.

I created a basic chart on fertilityfriend.com (without the temp charting) and am on day one of my cycle (today!).

I am looking forward to the support network found here and am also looking forward to getting to know you ladies in the process.

All the best,-Shannon

Hello everyone.

Just curious if there are any London (or surrounding areas) ladies who are also early in the ttc game? I am 30 and have just started this process - Jan is our first
month/cycle of ttc for our first baby.

I don't live in London (I did for school though) - I live in Etobicoke. My husband and I conceived on our first cycle, and now I am 19W 3D. I said everything you just said when we started, in September, and was shocked when it happened the first time. I really hope the same happens for you!!! Although, the trying is phase is pretty fun - so enjoy it.

One tip - try not to test until really close to your expected period, because I wasted a few preganacy tests trying too early, and so they came back negative - but then positive a few days later. It's hard to wait though. BUT I did have pregnancy symptoms a full week before my period was due - extreme fatigue, hightened sense of smell.

Best baby wishes to you!

Just wanted to say good luck!

Oh and I am 30 as well. I turmed 30 in October. People say all sorts of different things for how often to have sex - we did every day during ovulation week. And if you get that funny crampy feeling at the time of ovulation... drop your pants that moment if you can. Lol.

Like the previous poster, we had sex every day when I thought I was ovulating. I have 5 friends pregnant right now. It's our own baby boom :)2 of them got impatient when they didn't conceive the first month - they got those ovulation tests that look like pregnancy tests and both thought they were really helpful. One got pregnant the next cycle, and it took the other girl only two cycles.We spend all these years avoiding pregnancy and then...
